Fulham consider sending Fosu-Mensah back to Man Utd

The defender joined the London-based club looking for regular Premier League football, but has not managed to hold down a starting spot. He has only made eight league appearances so far.

Fulham are now thinking about terminating the loan this month in order to sign Chelsea centre-back Gary Cahill on a rental basis.

The rules mean a club can only have two players on loan at one time from other Premier League sides. With Fosu-Mensah and Calum Chambers currently taking those two spots, Fulham are willing to send the Dutch international back to Manchester United to make room for Cahill.

Fulham are currently sitting 19th in the Premier League and are fighting for survival.
